Ms Deirdre Walsh:
No, people are entitled to provide what they have always been providing within the health service. However, under the basic safety standards directive, they were looking to expand their scope of practice, and this is very specific to the provisions of ionising radiation. They can still do what they could always do but they will not be extending into the basic safety standards directive.
